Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 15, 2015, Jarden Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Agreement”) with Barclays Capital Inc. (“Barclays Capital”), Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and UBS Securities LLC (“UBS”), as representatives of the several underwriters named in Schedule I to the Agreement (the “Underwriters”). Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Agreement, the Company agreed to sell 10,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a price to the public of $49.00 per share (the “Offering”). In addition, the Company granted the Underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to 1,500,000 additional shares of Common Stock. The Company expects to close the Offering on or about October 21, 2015, subject to the satisfaction of various customary closing conditions.

The Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, conditions to closing, indemnification and obligations of the parties. The Company has also agreed to indemnify the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including civil liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or to contribute to payments that the Underwriters may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.

Certain of the Underwriters or their respective affiliates have, from time to time, performed, and may in the future perform, various commercial and investment banking services, trust services and financial advisory services for the Company and its affiliates, for which they have received customary fees and expenses. Affiliates of certain of the Underwriters are agents and/or lenders under our senior secured credit facility, securitization facility and/or certain committed facilities relating to the financing of the Company’s acquisition of Visant Holding Corp. (“Visant”). In addition, Barclays Capital is acting as financial advisor to the Company in connection with the Company’s proposed acquisition of Visant. Ros L’Esperance, who is currently one of our directors, also serves in various positions at one or more affiliates of UBS.

The shares of Common Stock were offered pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-190687). A copy of the Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 1.1, and the description of the terms of the Agreement in this Item 1.01 is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit, which is incorporated herein by reference.
